A piston-cylinder device initially contains 0.08 m3 of nitrogen gas at 150 kPa and 200°C. The nitrogen is now expanded to a pres

sure of 80 kPa polytropically with a polytropic exponent whose value is equal to the specific heat ratio (called isentropic expansion). Determine the final temperature and the boundary work done during this process.

Answer:

V_2 = 0.125 m^3

Work done =  = 5 kJ

Explanation:

Given data:

volume of nitrogen v_1 = 0.08 m^3

P_1 = 150 kPa

T_1 = 200 degree celcius = 473 Kelvin

P_2 = 80 kPa

Polytropic exponent n = 1.4

\frac{T_2}{T_1} = [\frac{P_2}{P_1}]^{\frac{n-1}{n}

putting all value

\frac{T_2}{473} = [\frac{80}{150}]^{\frac{1.4-1}{1.4}

\frac{T_2} = 395.23 K = 122.08 DEGREE \ CELCIUS

polytropic process is given as

P_1 V_1^n = P_2 V_2^n

150\times 0.08^{1.4} = 80 \times V_2^{1.4}

V_2 = 0.125 m^3

work done = \frac{P_1 V_1 -P_2 V_2}{n-1}

= \frac{150 \times 0.8 - 80 \times 0.125}{1.4-1}

                  = 5 kJ

A ball is tossed straight up from the surface of a small, spherical asteroid with no atmosphere. The ball rises to a height equa
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

d. equal to one-fourth the acceleration at the surface of the asteroid.

Explanation:

The explanation is attached as a picture with this answer

Newton's law of universal gravitation is being used to compare the accelerations at the surface and at the top of the ball's path.

as it can be seen in the explanation that the proportional form of the equation is used because we do not need to necessarily use to final form with "G" for comparison calculations.

As per the given scenario only difference between the two points in the gravitational field is the distance from center of the spherical asteroid, i.e. r.

It is  taken 2r for the top is the path. hence we obtain (1/4)g as our answer.

A barrel of oil is exactly 42 gal. how many liters of oil are in a barrel
Natali [406]
The conversion from gallons to liters is 1 = 3.785.

Keeping this in mind...

42 x 3.785 = 158.97 liters.

If rounding, there are about 159 liters of oil in a barrel.

Describe the full water cycle
sergey [27]

The water cycle (hydro-logic cycle), explains the constant motion of water on, above and below the surface of the Earth. The mass of water on Earth stays equally constant over time, although the severe portion of the water goes into the major reservoirs of ice, fresh water, saline water and atmospheric water is variable depending on a wide range of climatic variables. The water moves from one reservoir to another, such as from river to ocean, or from the ocean to the atmosphere, by the physical processes of evaporation, condensation, precipitation, infiltration, surface runoff, and subsurface flow. In doing so, the water goes through different forms: liquid, solid (ice) and vapor.

What does convection mean
Sladkaya [172]
Convection is the movement caused within a fluid by the tendency of hotter and therefore less dense material to rise, and colder, denser material to sink under the influence of gravity, which consequently results in transfer of heat
